    I must confess I have been absent here but can assure you that planning and coordination has been moving ahead full steam over the last few months. So here is a long but informative update to our progress as well as the much anticipated 12th Annual Sponsor Listing. Of course please understand some of this is subject to change as we are still adding sponsors. I am also going to release the Event Timeline for those that new to the event.



    Timeline of Events and Information

    General Information- Most owners have VHF Radio’s. If you have one, the event channel will be 5. Please stay OFF of channels 9 & 16 for general communication unless declaring an emergency. There is A LOT of water out there, find your spot and have a good time no need to crowd the main harbor which is primarily used by the demo boats. We recommend people go north for the best water and the most space between boats.
    Thursday- Pre-Event Kick-Off (MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW)
    This event is optional. Please do not feel obligated in any way to attend.
    Friday- Owner Arrivals, Meet and Greets, Demo Board Presentations, SURF System Demo’s, Demo Rules and Process, Coordinator Introductions at 7:00 p.m.
    - Parking Lot (Desert Side) of the Temple Bar Marina
    - Germaine Marine Demo Boats on Trailer and Demo Sign-Ups
    - Event T-Shirt Pick-Up
    - Boards/Surf Systems/Mission Reef Pad
    - All Demo products MUST be returned nightly to Brad/Dave/or Board manufacturer’s representatives. Room numbers will be provided unless told otherwise from above personnel.
    - PLEASE - No hoarding of Demo Products. Demo as long as needed and pass to another owner to demo.
    - Please be careful when handling boards and passing between boats.
    - All Boards and Surf Systems must be returned to Brad/Dave/ or Board manufacturer’s representatives NLT 5:00 p.m. on Saturday for Raffle.
    - We understand that products break, it happens please just let us know so we can provide that feedback back to the company.
    Saturday- Owners/Family/Friends Tige Boats Picture. Large boat tie off in front of Temple Rock just outside the Harbor will take place at 12:00 p.m.
    - Please be courteous. Have your bumpers/buoys ready for tie off in advance. We don’t want any accidents.
    - PLEASE Watch your speed and wake on approach there will be people/kids in the water.
    Once again, please ensure that boards/Surf Systems are returned to Dave/Brad NLT 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. We (coordinators) will need to prepare for the raffle. Dinner begins at 5:00 p.m. under the overhang just below the desert facing rooms closest to the water. The dinner will be provided by Germaine Marine and will be at NO COST to owners and family. All boat owners who have brought their boat to the event will need to check in with a coordinator at 5:30 P.M to have your name added to the hat (1 NAME PER BOAT). Raffle will begin promptly at 6:00 P.M. Please understand – we are still working DAILY on adding more sponsors and more raffle prizes. If we are able to obtain prizes for every Tige boat owner (regardless if they brought their boat or not), we will open the raffle up to those attendees as well.
    Saturday Evening Surf Session - After dinner and the raffle, around 9:00 p.m. there will be a boat or two leaving for an evening surf session (weather dependent).
    ***Sunday***- ALL OWNERS ARE REQUESTED TO MEET AT THE DOCK WITH THEIR BOATS AND THE PRIZES THEY WON FOR A PHOTO SESSION WITH JENN (OUR EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER) AT 9:00 A.M. THIS IS IMPAIRATIVE!!!! WE NEED TO SHOW THE SUPPORT TO OUR SPONSORS BY SHOWING WHERE THEIR DONATIONS ARE GOING AND WHO WON THEM. FAILURE TO SHOW UP FOR THIS DOES A HUGE DISCREDIT TO THIS EVENT AND COULD EFFECT OUR POTENTIAL SPONSORS IN THE FUTURE…DON’T BE THAT GUY!
    We are truly looking forward to this event and seeing our Tige’ Family again at the reunion. We ask that everyone be safe, be smart, be responsible, and have a good time. We will do our best to ensure that everyone is involved and included in the event. Thank you for your attention to this and please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
    Dave (D&P Powell) and Brad (theGerman618)

          That is amazing! No, you and Dave are amazing!! No, no, the sponsors are amazing!!!
          There may not be enough time to get it all in? You might need a Uhaul truck to transport it all?

                How far of a drive is the event site from Las Vegas?

                Comment


                  Really depends where in Vegas you're talking about. Roughly an hour to 1.5.

                    Good Afternoon Owners,

                    FOOD!!! If you are not already aware Germaine Marine is going to sponsor the owners dinner for the reunion and will be at NO cost. This year we are looking at doing a TACO BAR. I am requesting any personnel that have any food allergies or sensitivities to certain foods to please let us know. If you have something special that you would like prepared please bring it and I will be happy to throw it on the grill for you.

                    MENU:
                    Carne Asada
                    Chicken
                    Tortillas
                    Rice
                    Beans
                    Chips and Salsa
                    NON-Alcoholic drinks will be provided...IF you wish to bring your own adult beverages please BYOB

                    We are going to start reaching out for volunteers to assist with a few things at the event. THIS IS NOT REQUIRED!!!!!!!!!!!

                    We absolutely DO NOT want to take away from anyone's time on the water or with your families.

                    Here is what we are hoping that you can all assist us with as we are under the 90 day mark to the event.

                    1. Chairs (Gil has been kind enough in the past to bring chairs, hoping he can come through for us again)
                    2. Out Door Speakers with Microphone
                    3. Setup/Take Down of the Reunion Dinner (meeting at the lakeside overhang below the motel at 4:00PM)
                    4. Drone Pilot (TEAMALLEN and I saw Gil got one as well)
                    5. Cooking/Prep Assistance (I am bringing a HUGE BBQ for food)

                    If you are willing to assist us we would be greatly appreciative, if not we understand and we will make other arrangements.

                            Thank you all for the shirt information and keep them coming. If you have changes to your order, just please let us know what you need changed. DP will hold off on the order of all the shirts order till we are confident everyone has had an opportunity to make last minute changes or addition/deletions to orders.

                            We will post a last call for shirt orders and likely post a roster of who has what ordered.
